Auntie Meredith is SO much fun!!!

Auntie Meredith came for a visit this weekend and we're having a blast!! Between shows, ferry rides into Boston and the Aquarium today, it's been a lot of fun. :) Here are a few photos...more to come soon. Enjoy!

At the Aquarium this afternoon...





Tommy insisted on wearing his yellow rain coat today to the Aquarium. Hmm...might be a *bit* small, don't you think?



Taking the ferry into Boston! We walked through Fanueil Hall, the North End (hit Mike's Pastries...yum!) then had lunch before heading home. These guys were happy!!

Rolling, rolling, rolling...

I've always liked Bounty paper towels. With all the spills we have around here, these towels seem to work the best in our house. But did you know how many towels you actually GET on each roll? A lot!!! How do I know this??? See below...


This is part of a 15-pack of Bounty paper towels from the wholesale store. I say "part" because the other half rolled its way into the kitchen, around our island and into the bathroom. Here is the the path of towels I followed....



Not a roll left untouched...all in under 10 minutes while I was getting dressed. Pretty impressive stuff boys! Needless to say, that it took a lot longer to re-roll them than it did to unroll them. :) Happy Wednesday everyone!

Hide and Seek

This afternoon when they woke from naps, the boys wanted to play hide and seek. They found a pretty good hiding spot! Too bad their giggles gave them away. :)



They clearly think that this is an EXCELLENT hiding spot. When it was my turn to count again, this is where I found them.


And when I was "it" again? Here they were!!!

Curious George meets my monkeys!!!

We had the BEST weekend! Saturday, Beth and I took the boys to the Curious George exhibit at the Children's Museum in Boston. I surprised them that morning when they woke up, with special "tickets" for their day. They had bananas for breakfast while watching the new Curious George movie...then we jumped in the pre-packed car...picked up coffee, juice and MUNCHKINS...then picked up Beth before heading into the city. They were SO excited! Cole was chanting, "happy, happy, happy, I'm happy!" the whole way to pick up Beth. It was so cute.

The boys loved the museum and walked the whole morning. This may seem like no big deal...but for me? Having my two 2-year olds...listening, holding hands, walking and following direction was like hitting the lottery! After we had conquered all three levels, we walked over to the Barking Crab for lunch. Another huge success! We had to wait 15 minutes for the restaurant to even open, and these two were inquisitive, patient, funny...I was so proud.

Here are some pictures from our day. Enjoy!

The three amigos

My friend is an amazing photographer and just sent me this great photo from Easter weekend of Tommy and Cole with their best pal Gavin. So sweet! I just love it. Had to share...
